Although I’ve never done it that way, different pots for different ingredients would work just fine, I would imagine.

Okay, now another question…this year, NO ONE is saying “no” to this party!!!!(that tells you how yummy this boil is!!) Usually I invite around 45 people and end up with 32-35…which is comfortable. This year it is totally possible to have 50…or more!!! YIKES! Not even trying to figure out how to seat this many people in our small back yard…now it looks like I should be looking for another turkey fryer to accomodate the extra food I will be needing for this crowd! Do you think that 3 will suffice? I do like the idea of different foods in different pots…makes a lot of sense… HELP!

You cook for the same amount of time regardless of how many you are cooking for-just bring it to a boil and time everything as soon as the water boils.

Thanks for the feed back. The last party I threw the whole jar into each pot,and my hubby was freaking out that it was too spicy.but our guest raved about it..he can just eat chicken! Without the Cajun kick, what is the point? Thanks..I just need the reassurance! THis is without a doubt, the favorite party in our group for the year….and I love that it is one pot food! So easy…and everyone else brings all the trimmings for the feast!…mainly apps and deserts,and liquid additions..

Marge,
In a pot that big, I’d go for a whole bottle.

I have been doing a shrimp boil for several years, but always been perplexed on the amount of seasoning to add to the water…I do 2 turkey fryers for the boil to serve around 36 people. How much seasoning to add to each fryer? My hubby fights me on this…he hates the spice, but everyone else loves it…so he is over-ruled..he can eat chicken!!! What I have are 4 oz. bottles of Zatarains shrimp and crab boil seasoning (liquid). mY instinct is to add one bottle to each pot…please, I need feedback!
